Details
This project is a meditation on the ecosystem of blackness in an environment that constantly pillages it, his identity and how it interacts with heritage, and growth and beauty within said culture; all explored through the motif of loss, as it appears in various forms of the human experience. The album cultivates a sonic biosphere that started with the intention of making a jazz album. The frenetic, freewheeling nature of jazz is distilled in loops for him to play in, as he nurtures a concept that takes an experience felt by a group, and inserts his own individuality.
Throughout the process of feeling, reflecting, and writing this collection of poems, he quickly understood that these themes supersede a single medium. This artistic ecosystem concept is an interactive music listening experience that invites people into the marsh, to wade in its water, and to leave impacted equally by its beauty and its flaws.
Be there to experience a one-night-only performance of original spoken word poetry, live listening of the album, commissioned artwork that was created as a visual interpretation of it, and a Q&A session.
Wine and refreshments will be provided, and exclusive album merchandise will be available for purchase for the first time.
